Maybe try specifying arguments per the documentation.
fDF <- av_get("MSFT", av_fun = "TIME_SERIES_DAILY_ADJUSTED", outputsize = "full")
Thanks. Typing that from the R command line worked this time and has worked previously
Some magic is missing from my R code writing world. I have looked but not found a way to programmatically construct the argument string parameters with the quotes and commas, etc. When I saw documentation that seemed to show position and keyword sensitivity, I thought maybe av_get would just “see”, “full” and be happy.
Do you know how to construct (“paste”, “cat”, etc.) this: "MSFT", av_fun = "TIME_SERIES_DAILY_ADJUSTED", outputsize = "full")
Because I sure can’t seem to do it. In Perl, maybe, but R? Not so much.
Thanks in advance,
Hmm, not sure. A good avenue might be to add your question to StackOverflow. I'm sure someone has previously tried to do something similar (and may have succeeded).
fDF <- av_get("MSFT", "TIME_SERIES_DAILY_ADJUSTED", "full") cDF <- av_get("MSFT", "TIME_SERIES_DAILY_ADJUSTED", "compact")
The number of rows returned is 100 in both cases. Docs state that the default outputsize parameter is "compact". Perhaps the parameter is not seen or processed properly
If I use a url and do a read.table: url <- "https://www.alphavantage.co/query?function=TIME_SERIES_DAILY_ADJUSTED&apikey=MYapiKey&outputsize=full&datatype=csv&symbol=MSFT" csvDF <- read.table(url, header=TRUE, sep=",")
csvDF has 4000+ rows
